Every need met
Operating within a 32-channel frame, the 32S fulfils the need of the sound engineer working in a medium to large venue who works with fewer channels. Local analog connectors are featured on every channel and bus, and the desk can be networked with to NSB stage boxes. There are 33 motorised touch-sensitive faders and this gives you a huge amount of control over your mixes - whether you're setting things up for the big show or need to mix on the fly. 32S is accurate, quick, and efficient.
Analog feel, Digital reliability
Capture the sonic character of analog gear. Each channel features analog connectors which allows all of your mix to sound as audibly rich as the gear that is producing it, thanks to your Fat Channel plug-ins. Ten EQ and compressor models are featured on the desk and can be used within PreSonus' Studio One software.
Take control with FlexMix
Your desk, your way. The FlexMix system allows you to assign different functions to 16 channels. These can be set as aux bus, subgroups or matrix mix. This gives you a huge amount of flexibility as your desk is always ready for whatever the venue or band throws at you. All models have 24 DCA's too, so you can easily control groups of channels.
AVB compatible
The StudioLive series desks are AVB compatible. Audio Video Bridging is an extension to the Ethernet standard which is designed to provide high-quality sampling. Sending these high-quality samples to their destinations on time and with minimal degradation to the signal. As audio over ethernet becomes increasingly popular for audio distribution. Keep up to speed with StudioLive's AVB compatibility.
Capture your mix
Record your mixes for later distribution. The 32-channel powerhouse ships with PreSonus Capture recording software. It runs either to your mixer for in-box recording or to a Windows or macOS computer. All 32 channels can be recorded and bounced down to a stereo mix to either a USB or an SD card - or both at the same time!
Not only is StudioLive brilliantly integrated with Capture and Studio One Artist, you can also mix wirelessly using the UC Surface. This software allows you to control your desk from your Mac, Windows, Android, or iPad. Obtain further control of your monitor mixes with the QMix-UC for iPhone, iPod touch, and Android devices. Everything you need to help artists perform at their best.
